    Arsenal 2-1 Saints - Post match

    in The Saints

    Posted

    Sent by my Canadian cousin in Toronto.

     

    Decided to watch Arsenal vs Southampton, instead. My understanding of the game remains minimal, but I'd have to say that your boys were robbed by bad officiating.

     

    Could it be that when baseball umpires become too blind to call balls and strikes, they send them over to referee Premier League Football!

    Atkinson decisions yesterday.

    The Lino should have kept his flag up (like they do in Rugby) and get the ref to come back to him after the event....

     

    The header was probably a foul by Cedric, but then their LB kicked out at him as they were coming down to ground... so foul play

     

    If there was video ref (like in Rugby) then that would have been overturned !

    Season Tickets 2013/14

    1 free under 11's ticket with 2 adults in the family section. Wasn't this one free with one adult last season?

     

    Overall prices are pretty much what I expected.

     

    It was 1 free under 11 with 2 adults last season... however, this year's terms state

     

    "Family Stand Season Ticket (additional Terms)

    1.38 Supporters under the age of 11yrs at 31st July 2013 are entitled to 1 free Season Ticket in the Family Stand when purchased with a Full paying Adult Season Ticket in the Family Stand.

     

    This isn't what is stated in the advertising blurb....

     

    Last year I had to buy an U17 ticket for my 9 year old and an U11 for the 8 year old - because only 1 U11 per adult ticket was allowed...

     

    So, might be cheaper this year !!

    ST renewals not till noon on 6th

    Did you get an explanation for this , i.e. are they going to fix it as, my 8 and 11 year old are being charged at full whack £625.Dont see the point on spending 30 mins on the phone if they are going to fix it.Also why dont they allow carparking to be renewed on-line? you have to do that over the phone, but that person cant help me with the season ticket problem.

     

    Did this ever get answered... i'm being told by the ticket office that it's only 1 U11 (11 and under) ticket per adult, if there's more than one U11, then one of them pays the U17 rate !

    Buying a season ticket

    in The Saints

    Posted

    I have two friends who have season tickets in the Itchen - I would like to get one this season next to them (there are no season ticket holders there at present). My friend has asked if i can do this and the answer is no - they can renew up to 14 July and then I would have to take pot luck on getting the seat next to them.

     

    I will try to do this but if i can't then I probably won't get a season ticket at all as i don't want to sit on my own for every match. I am prepared to pay the premium for a new ticket. This is quite a big investment for me as I live 145 miles away and will have to travel down for the games at a fair cost.

     

    The policy seems very inflexible and is likely to result in the club being worse off. It seems a funny way to run a business let alone encourage genuine fans.

     

     

    why not get one of your friends to move to the vacant seat when they renew (I'm sure they can request a different seat that's free). This would then leave 1 free seat between 2 season ticket seats and very unlikely to be sold

    MLT now gone missing... in yesterday's Guardian

     

    Players go missing

     

    Only two speakers were absent from a planned line-up including Parry and Sir Trevor Brooking at the PPF conference yesterday and they were the only two whose sole claim to fame is as former players: Matt Le Tissier and Paul Merson. The only current or former players among the delegates were people such as Gordon Taylor, Brendon Batson and Brooking, all of them administrators.

     

    Did anyone see him at Celtic Manor instead ?

    Season tickets released!

    Do the individual match prices quoted already include the £3 extra ?

     

    The "on the day" prices quoted on the OS are £2 more than the advanced purchase tickets. It's a bit of a nonsence to quote say £27 as a "on the day" price (and then add £2 as a on the day premium / penalty).

     

    If the £3 is already included in the ticket price, then this is not so bad. (effectively the "ticket price" is reduced and there's an additional charge included) Otherwise, people who live out of the area are really being penalised.....

     

    This needs clarification I think ....

    Poopey Ticket update

    Posted

    Sorry may have mis-read the original post but to clarify we got 4 extra tickets yesterday on our season ticket numbers.

     

    Already got my season ticket seats, but on the phone they wouldn't let me use the same numbers for extra tickets...

    I was born at St. Mary's .... unfortunately, the hospital down the road....

    then I got adopted and ended up in Locks Heath... *****il my parents decided to move to Titchfield Common and a PO postcode !)

     

    7 years old in 1976, so can't really remember - I remember lots of people at school (Park Gate Junior) were "Ipswich fans" because they won the cup a couple of years later...

     

    My children now have the initials SFC so they can't forget !
